Pamukkale means Cotton Fortress, and has been a spa since the Romans built the spa city of Hierapolis around a sacred warm-water spring. The cliff is almost 200 meters high, the spectacular white travertine terrace form when water from the hot springs as they cool they leave thick white layers of limestone and travertine, built up in steps on the plateau. This place is inscribed as UNESCO World Heritage in 1988.
